Berlin City Small Group Half Day Guided Segway Tour

A. The tours run rain or shine. The tours in the rain can be a different kind of fun and an even more fun memory! The guides try their best to take cover but sometimes you will be exposed to the elements. Pocket-sized rain ponchos are for sale in the shop and it is highly recommend that you purchase one before the tour. If you don’t use it, the shop will buy it back from you - it's a bit of a rain insurance policy!

A. The tour guides cannot enter the Berlin museums and monuments. German Law restricts museum guides to their authorized officials. Plus, some people would want to spend only ten minutes in the museum while others would prefer 3 hours. Your guide, and the shop staff, will be happy to show you exactly how to go back to any sites you would like to explore further or visit the interior. This applies to all bike and segway tours except Gardens and Palaces of Potsdam Bike Tour from Berlin. This tour includes entrance tickets and audio-guide of Cecilienhof Palace in Potsdam.

A. The SegwayTM Human Transporter is the first of its kind-a self-balancing, personal transportation device designed to go anywhere people do. Easy to use and operate, the two-wheeled Segway sports high-tech gyroscopes that automatically respond to your body’s movements, “sensing” when it should speed up and slow down.

You stand on a small platform between left and right wheels as you hold onto handlebars at a comfortable waist height. The Segway handles the balancing for you, so that you’re always upright as you glide through any environment.

A. There is a weight limit of 250 lbs. (117 kilograms) to ride Segways. All participants must also be at least 15 years old and possess at least a moped or auto drivers license.

A. No minimum number for tours to go out! The tours run with just one participant. We believe your vacation is too valuable to waste on minimum tour participant requirements. Regarding maximums, we do of course only have a limited number of machines. Also, for safety and group comfort reasons groups are split if more than 8 participants.

A. Although riding a Segway is relatively easy to do and learn, we do require that all riders be at least 15 years of age and possess a moped or auto license. Each of our tours begins with a 30-minute orientation session. You will practice on the Segways until everyone feels comfortable.
